This past weekend, one hundred medical professionals met in California for the 33rd Doctors for Disaster Preparedness meeting and they all warned that healthcare as we have known it is over, thanks to increasing federal regulations and taxes. And as Obamacare rolls across the land, it is leaving in its wake a shortage of doctors and surgeons.
According to a Breitbart report, orthopedic surgeon Dr. Lee Hieb told the conference, "What do I mean by medical meltdown? Well, sadly, I’m here to tell you that the medical care you’ve enjoyed in the past in your life is simply not going to be there in the future.”
Here's why:
We have so much regulation that almost no medical care gets out. We have over 160,000 pages of Medicare regulation and counting. Obamacare is Medicare on steroids.
Hieb explained that the shortage of doctors is stemming from "the great gurus of government" deciding that specialists were getting too big a piece of pie and so they put limitations on the profession. She added that the number of new general surgeons the U.S. receives each year (350) doesn't even reach replacement rate of those surgeons leaving the business. High tax rates and poor training are also to blame for the decrease, according to Hieb.

You can’t just go to the doctor whenever you want. It’s as he said with your thermostat, fridge, and car.
Citizen, kneel before Zodboma.

So much for equal under the law.
The USSA Politburo is more equal than the rest.
“Is a black market in health care going to develop?”
Is America Prepared for Black Market Healthcare?

At the county fair, there was a display for a scramble pig. The young lady named her hog, “Duroc Obama”. The sign said, “If you like your vet, you can keep your vet.” In the Presidential Picture, the Hog’s face replaced Barack’s.
Hysterical.
The Sheriff banned all Confederate memorabilia, but no one even mentioned this.
Oh, funny.
If I knew how to photoshop...
You know what the Japanese say about that? "Nevah haahpen."
Americans are too lazy to study the issues and the impact of the candidates for whom they vote. Do you think they'll answer the call for, what, revolution?
It's done, man. We're in the death throes.
Our only hope is that God still has a plan for the country. Our only hope is that America is still a viable entity to execute God's righteousness.
But with our worship of sodomites, celebration of insanity such as bruce jenner, and our relentless murder of the precious unborn, I can't but imagine God washed His hands of us, long ago.
That would work except it drives the cost of medical care through the roof. Doctors must hire staff just to do the paperwork. And the insurance companies want to be part of the process, which means they want patient data, and to put limits on ordinary care.
The insurance companies are, or at least were, big backers of Obamacare.
Insurance companies involved in regular care is like insurance for gamblers in Vegas. The axiom is all wrong.

Too late to storm anything. The doctors retired early. They are gone. Countless super intelligent would be medical students have dropped their career/education plans. This was fully predictable.
I have seen the shortages around here in Texas. I personally know six who have left practice. My GP, who is excellent, has so many patients, he is working himself into a nervous wreck, but does not want to abandon everyone. He was set up with many excellent specialist MD’s, many who have “retired.” I have gotten some super iffy referrals to total foreigners from him, but it is all he’s got. I met and left two, before they touched me because I could not understand their broken English and they did not interact like normal doctors. Creepy. I learned that the guy who cured my cancer “retired.”
“The US was a market large enough to encourage business ventures in medical progress. That is was, as in past tense.”
As were all the innovations that came from here because we had economic freedom.
No more.
